France faces a political turnaround with no party winning an outright majority in the second round of the parliamentary election.
The right-wing National Rally party (RN), linked to Marine Le Pen, finished third with 143 seats, while the New Popular Front (NFP) and President Macron’s Ensemble coalition also failed to secure a majority.
With an estimated turnout of 67.1%, the highest since 1997, the election has left the country without a clear candidate for prime minister.
President Macron is set to analyze the results before making any further decisions, and Prime Minister Gabriel Attal has announced his resignation following the exit poll results.
Dive into this video for an in-depth analysis of the election results and their implications for France's political future.
France has rejected NATO’s new U.S.-led initiative to fund American weapons for Ukraine, dealing a blow to Trump’s arms plan. President Macron insists Europe must reduce dependency and prioritize its own defense industry. French officials cite budget constraints and strategic autonomy as key reasons. The move deepens a rift within NATO, with the Czech Republic and Hungary also opting out. Germany, however, backs the plan, warning that only U.S. supplies can meet Ukraine’s urgent battlefield needs against Russia’s continued offensive.

French President Emmanuel Macron has announced a significant boost to France’s defense budget, citing Russia as the primary threat to national and European security. Speaking ahead of Bastille Day, Macron warned that freedom hasn’t faced such a dire threat since 1945. With €64 billion planned for defense by 2027, Macron called on citizens to prepare for national sacrifice. Our reporter, Paridhi Bhanot, breaks down what this means for Europe, India, and global stability amid budget deficits, rising tensions, and a looming security crisis.

Donald Trump will be hosted by the King and Queen at Windsor Castle during his unprecedented second state visit to the UK from September 17 to 19, Buckingham Palace said.
